Just as Guerrilla followed up on Horizon Zero Dawn with The Frozen Wilds, it's following up on Forbidden West with its own expansion in Burning Shores.

Added 67 Views / 0 LikesThe indie games industry continues to grow at a rapid pace with a buffet of exciting releases that challenge the many norms of AAA game development. There’s almost a never-ending cavalcade of promising games that are set to release sometime in the future, and most games in this category continue to impress with their unique mechanics and fresh designs. We started this feature series to put a spotlight on some of these games, and highlight why these ga

GamingBolt - Dead Island 2 Ending Explained And How It Sets Up Dead Island 3
Added 67 Views / 0 LikesDead Island 2 was many things a good year ago – seemingly in development hell, nearly forgotten and even labelled vaporware. It may seem harsh, but it was announced in 2014, less than a year after the PS4 and Xbox One, and went from YAGER to Sumo Digital before finally landing at Dambuster. Other games with more resources have fared far worse. However, now it's available – and pretty good, though it has some issues, selling over a million copies in ju

GamingBolt - 10 Single Player Games That Should NEVER Go Open World
Added 67 Views / 0 LikesWe absolutely love open world games here at GamingBolt, and we're far from being alone in that. From the level of freedom they promise to the amount of content they deliver, there's plenty to love about them- or, well, at least when they're well designed, that is. At the same time though, we're also firm believers that there are certain games and certain types of experiences that absolutely should not be open world. Either because of their pacing, the

GamingBolt - The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom vs Breath of the Wild Graphics Comparison: What's New?
Added 67 Views / 0 LikesThe developer has done a fantastic job with The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, a game that has proven instrumental in laying the blueprint for some of the best open worlds of recent memory. The game’s set of mechanics was ripe to be built upon with a sequel, and Tears of The Kingdom is here to do just that. The game not only delivers a huge leap in terms of the systemic gameplay that defined the original, but also makes pretty substantial change

GamingBolt - The Full Story of Ryu - Before You Play Street Fighter 6
Added 67 Views / 0 LikesIf you haven't engaged with the Street Fighter series too much, you'd be forgiven for thinking that it might not have too much of a story to look into- it is, after all, a fighting series, and one that hasn't always made story its biggest priority. As series fans will gladly tell you though, that couldn't be further from the truth. There is a startling amount of narrative content packed into Street Fighter, and across multiple releases, it has built u

Added 67 Views / 0 LikesYou’ll absolutely feel the punch of speed a superbike will grant you in this virtual high-speed affair just as hard as you’ll feel the pain of consistently eating the pavement at every turn. This visceral and dicey racing gauntlet absolutely demonstrates why the real-world event is known for being so remarkably dangerous in the realm of motorsports.

GamingBolt - Planet of Lana Review - The Final Verdict
Added 67 Views / 0 LikesOverall, Planet of Lana is a beautiful experience with tight gameplay, a compelling and well-designed world, and a strong narrative anchored by two likeable leads and an imposing threat. This year – heck, even this quarter – could see it fall under the radar of some big blockbusters. However, the odyssey of Lana and Mui is worth undertaking and remembering.

GamingBolt - Fuga: Melodies of Steel 2 Review - The Final Verdict
Added 67 Views / 0 LikesFuga: Melodies of Steel 2 can best be described as more of the same - so if that description excites you, this sequel should be right up your alley. On the other hand, if you didn’t have a good time playing the original, it’s unlikely that Melodies of Steel 2 will change that viewpoint. But looking at it in a vacuum, Melodies of Steel 2 is a surprisingly solid tactical RPG that strikes a good balance between accessibility and skill. The story is hampe

DEATHLOOP Xbox Series X Review - The Final Verdict
Added 66 Views / 0 LikesDeathloop is still a very middling experience. If you're keen on a 20-hour-or-so action thriller with a unique style that provides a decent amount of freedom to play how you want, then it may be worth a look. However, the issues with its core gameplay and story-telling, not to mention the repetition, iffy pacing and unnecessary PvP mechanics, still weigh it down.

10 Games That Show The Evolution of Video Game Headshots
Added 66 Views / 0 LikesWhat is it about video game headshots that makes them so satisfying? Well, as their evolution shows, it’s a range of things; the sight of a head blown to smithereens by your bullet, the bragging rights of whipping your opponent’s head off, or the creatively bloody animations of exploding heads. First and foremost, though, successful headshots demand precision and skill – both of which feel great when executed.

Warcraft 3 Reforged - What The Hell Happened?
Added 66 Views / 0 LikesUntil not too long ago, Blizzard Entertainment still had all the prestige that the developer had typically been associated with over the years. When Blizzard put out a new game, the entire industry would pause and take notice, and almost as a rule, these new games would shatter expectations and be met with rapturous critical and commercial reception. Recent years, however, have brought a few blemishes to Blizzard's pristine record- and probably the bi

Lies of P - 15 NEW DETAILS You NEED To Know
Added 66 Views / 0 LikesSouth Korean developer and publisher Neowiz created quite a stir with the release of Lies of P’s gameplay trailer last month. Twisting a childhood fable such as Pinocchio into something murky and macabre isn’t an entirely new concept; no, children’s stories often flirt with darkness. Instead, it’s Lies of P’s obvious Soulsborne influence – complete with direct, sometimes mirror image comparisons to Bloodborne – that is turning heads. In an ever-bloati

Given the 2018 title's much more focused and intimate story, our protagonists don't cross paths with any of the Aesir- though there a

GamingBolt - Evil West Review - The Final Verdict
Added 66 Views / 0 LikesDo I recommend Evil West? Well, at this point, I suspect you already know if this is your type of game or not. If you're one of those gamers whose primary concern is the sheer amount of content per dollar, then maybe wait for a sale. That math doesn’t really work out in the game’s favor, and there’s not much replay value outside of a half-baked co-op mode that doesn’t let player 2 save their game, and a new game plus. Neither of which fundamentally ch

Added 66 Views / 0 LikesSo, we’ve just passed two years since Microsoft’s fourth generation home console was released, and like Sony’s PlayStation 5, the triumphant reception of new console release was instead hampered by stock shortages and scammers. But, contrary to Sony’s beleaguered PS5 launch, Microsoft’s new generation has been a little easier for gamers to get their hands on.

GamingBolt - Gundam Evolution PS5 Review - The Final Verdict
Added 66 Views / 0 LikesGundam Evolution might have shamelessly lifted some of its presentation and mechanics from other games (and I think it did), but it’s still a great game at the end of the day. All of the combat feels fun and well-balanced, and the way the Mobile Suit’s abilities work in the heat of battle only add to the excitement. There is some eye-rolling at the game’s monetization, and Guntank’s slipperiness should be fixed, but overall, it’s a well-made, entirely
